I want to buy my first, but can't find a deal. Suggestions?

[Turgut Oz]

Hello all. I am new to real estate investing. I am based in California and interested in out-of-state investments. I contacted realtors but they send me usual properties that are negative cash flowing. I could not buy anything yet despite my willingness. Here are my questions for experienced members:

- Should I find realtors who are also investors? Is this platform good for that purpose?

- Should I work with wholesalers?

- what is the best way to find opportunities for someone who works full time with a demanding job that leaves little time for me to explore (driving for dollars etc.)?

Any help is welcome. Thanks
